Traditional matcha bamboo whisk

Traditional Bamboo Whisk

$ 20.00
Why Use a Whisk?

Our bamboo whisks are created specifically for preparing matcha. Forks, spoons, and metal whisks do not properly mix the matcha powder—you will always have clumps. Bamboo whisks are the secret to achieving a frothy matcha. We consider it a must-have for matcha preparation.

Care Instructions

Handwash with warm water and place atop a whisk holder to dry.

You may also soak the whisk in warm water before use to soften the bristles, which will help you achieve the perfect froth.

To extend the lifespan and shape of your whisk, we recommend a whisk holder. This will help the whisk to dry and maintain the shape of its bamboo prongs.

MATCHA CONTAINS

POWERFUL ANTIOXIDANTS

Matcha is an antioxidant powerhouse. On the ORAC scale (oxygen radical absorbance capacity – a measure of the antioxidant capacity of food), it surpasses all other antioxidant-rich foods including blueberries, pomegranates, and dark chocolate.

The antioxidants in matcha are made up of 60% catechin polyphenols – the most potent antioxidant. Catechins offer protection against many kinds of cancer, helping to prevent heart disease, reduce cholesterol, and slow the process of aging. The most important and abundant polyphenol in matcha is EGCG (epigallocatechin gallate) – the same polyphenol found in all green teas.

MATCHA PROVIDES

SUSTAINED ENERGY & FOCUS

L-Theanine, an amino acid found in matcha, combines with caffeine to create increased focused and sustained energy throughout the day. L-Theanine has been hailed for relaxing the brain, muscles, and blood vessels. It can help lower blood pressure, enhance mood and promotes a sense of calmness by relaxing alpha waves in the brain (associated with a feeling of happiness and alertness) and increasing dopamine production – two of the brain’s ‘feel good’ chemicals. This amino acid is the secret ingredient that leaves you feeling energetic and focused yet calm all day long.

MATCHA IS

CLEANSING & DETOXIFYING

Matcha is five times higher in chlorophyll than regular green tea. The primary reason chlorophyll is considered a superfood is because of its strong antioxidant and anticancer effects. Chlorophyll benefits the immune system because it’s able to form tight molecular bonds with certain chemicals that contribute to oxidative damage and diseases like cancer or liver disease. Chlorophyll can help give you clear skin, protect your blood and heart, and also help prevent joint inflammation.
